Lovi Assistant explains
- Offers highly effective exfoliation for your oily skin, as glycolic acid and lactic acid work to smooth texture and regulate oil production, addressing your oily shine concerns.
- The presence of bisabolol and grape seed oil provides soothing and nourishing benefits, further enhancing comfort for your oily skin.
- The product is safe for your skin, with no risks of irritation due to the absence of harsh ingredients and the inclusion of soothing components.
How to apply
- Use this exfoliant product as part of your PM routine once a week. Start slowly and build up frequency only if your skin tolerates it well.
- Apply the exfoliant after cleansing and toner, but right before your moisturizer.
- Gently press 2-3 drops of the exfoliant into your skin and let it absorb fully. Avoid any harsh rubbing to keep your skin calm.
- Apply the exfoliant directly onto completely dry skin to get the best balance and results. Clean, dry skin helps the product work evenly.
- Always avoid the delicate eye area when applying. Be sure to use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily while using exfoliating acids.

Questions and answers
What makes CAUDALÍE Vinoperfect Glycolic Peel Mask a great fit for oily skin?
This exfoliant treatment is a great fit because glycolic acid and lactic acid smooth texture and help control oily shine. Soothing ingredients like bisabolol and grape seed oil also keep your skin comfortable without any harshness.
Which ingredients make this exfoliant a good fit for oily skin?
Glycolic acid and lactic acid make this exfoliant a great fit for your oily skin because they help smooth texture and control extra oil. Bisabolol and grape seed oil also help soothe and nourish your skin for added comfort.
What does Glycolic Acid do for oily skin?
Glycolic acid helps clear away dead skin and excess oil for a smooth, clean feel. It gently removes buildup from the surface, which keeps pores clear and skin looking fresh.
Molecules, 2023Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 2011
What does Viniferine do for oily skin?
Viniferine helps improve dark spots and uneven skin tone by slowing down pigment production in the skin. Because it targets melanin activity, an oily skin type dealing with dark marks also needs ingredients that balance oil and clear pores to keep the skin smooth and clear.
Where does this exfoliant go in a skincare routine for oily skin?
This exfoliant treatment goes in the evening routine once a week for oily skin. You can carefully use it more often if your skin tolerates it well and sees good results.
Can I use this exfoliant with retinol, and in what order?
You should use them on separate nights rather than together to keep your oily skin calm and avoid irritation. Using glycolic acid and retinol at the same time is usually too strong, so alternate them in your evening routine.
How often should I use this exfoliant?
Start by using this exfoliant once a week, and if your skin feels comfortable and shows good results, you may carefully use it more often. Glycolic acid helps smooth texture and manage oily shine.
Can this exfoliant clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for oily skin?
This exfoliant is unlikely to trigger acne breakouts or clog pores on oily skin, as it helps clear dead skin and is made without heavy oils that block pores. The soothing ingredients inside also keep irritation low, meaning your skin may adjust smoothly without heavy purging.
Is this exfoliant fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
It has no drying alcohol and contains fragrance (benzyl alcohol and parfum). Cetearyl alcohol and cetyl alcohol are fatty alcohols, which soften the skin.
